We look at the division of 31557971 by 287 
Our goal is to divide 31557971 by 287.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 divided by 287 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 31 / 287

Advancing to step 2:
287 goes into 31 0 times with a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 315 / 287

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 287 fits into 315 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 287 from 315 and we're left with 28.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 285 / 287

Step 4:
When dividing 285 by 287, we get 0 with a remainder of 285.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 285 after subtracting 0 from 285.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 285, then repeat: 2857 / 287

Going ahead to step 5:
287 goes into 2857 9 times with a remainder of 274.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 109.0
If we subtract 2583 from 2857, we get 274.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 274 and continue: 2749 / 287

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 2749 by 287, we get 9 and a remainder of 166.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1099.0
Subtracting 2583 from 2749 leaves us with 166.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 166 and repeat the process: 1667 / 287

On to step 7:
1667 divided by 287 is 5 with a remainder of 232.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10995.0
Deduct 1435 from 1667 and we're left with 232.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 232, then repeat: 2321 / 287

Step 8:
The number 287 fits into 2321 8 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 109958.0
If we take 2296 away from 2321, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 250 by 287, we get 0 and a remainder of 250.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 109958.0
Subtracting 0 from 250 leaves us with 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 2500 by 287, we get 8 and a remainder of 204.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 109958.08
If we take 2296 away from 2500, we end up with 204.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 287 fits into 2040 7 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 109958.087
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 2009 from 2040.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 310 by 287, we get 1 and a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 109958.0871
If we subtract 287 from 310, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 230 by 287, we get 0 with a remainder of 230.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 109958.0871
Deduct 0 from 230 and we're left with 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
287 can be fit into 2300 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 109958.087108
If we take 2296 away from 2300, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
The number 287 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 109958.087108
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
287 goes into 400 1 times with a remainder of 113.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 109958.08710801
Subtracting 287 from 400 leaves us with 113.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1130, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 109958.08710801, and the remainder is 1.13e-07.
